Chapter 389: You can travel around the world without leaving your home
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year, everyone!"
"Come on, it's time for the red envelope draw!"
“Thanks to Lao Bi Deng for the cruise!”
…
After the New Year.
The live broadcast rooms of major platforms have gradually returned to their former bustle.
As soon as the broadcast started, a large number of viewers flocked into Ouyang Xiao's live broadcast room, and various New Year greetings filled the screen.
Ouyang Xiao in front of the camera was also smiling, and seemed to be a little rounder than before the New Year.
"You're just a dog anchor. It took you so long to start the show. You made me wait so long!"
"Two and a half weeks! Do you know how I spent these two and a half weeks!?"
"I thought you were going back for a blind date, but you made me so sad that I overate and gained 30 pounds since last year!"
"My goodness, raising pigs isn't even that fast."
"Stop talking nonsense. Do you have any plans for the first day of the new year?"
The entire live broadcast room was bustling with activity, as many people had just returned from the Spring Festival holiday and came to share their joy with everyone.
This damn desire to share.
After several rounds of red envelope gifts, Ouyang Xiao also opened the webpage and browsed the updated content during this period.
"Huh? The level cap of "Xiu Xian Da Shi Jie" has been raised to the Jin Dan stage? And a new map has been added?"
"What are you waiting for? Let's go to the game Huashan Sword Contest!"
After saying that, he took out the game helmet, adjusted the recliner, and reconnected the line.
The Huashan Sword Contest is an activity in the live broadcast room.
To put it simply, it is actually a sword flying race.
The routes are set in various forests, swamps, beast territories, storm seas, and lava hells. The point is to commit suicide in these dangerous places in various ways.
But even so.
There are always a lot of spectators attending every time it is held.
On the track, they set traps for each other and tripped up their opponents, which brought the show to its full potential.
Since the new version has been updated during the Chinese New Year, it is natural to hold an online event to celebrate with everyone.
"Have you heard about this, host? Suo Ni and Ren Tiandi announced yesterday that they have successfully developed a virtual sports field similar to Honghuang, and have installed it on the platform."
At this time, a long barrage of bullets floated by.
Ouyang Xiao, who was debugging the equipment, was immediately attracted.
"Those platforms also have virtual sports fields? So soon?"
The news did surprise her a bit.
But on second thought, it's true.
Since the merger of Soni and Rentiandi platforms, the virtual technology sharing of the two companies has made great progress, even surpassing the software big brother Juying and becoming the largest virtual platform outside of Honghuang.
With such huge resources and technical support, it is not surprising to achieve this level.
Ouyang Xiao was a little worried about what Honghuang should do next.
Will there be any response to this matter?
As a loyal fan of Honghuang, she naturally hopes that Honghuang will eventually win in this competition in the virtual industry.
"Forget it, let's not think about it too much. We are just lousy gamers, we don't care about such a big thing."
If you can't change it, then just give up.
Ouyang Xiao was too lazy to think about these bad things.
After debugging the equipment, I lay down on the recliner and logged into the platform with the long-lost sound of [Start connecting].
Swish!
The light comes on.
When she stood still again, she found herself in a huge and festive square.
The surroundings are decorated with lights and dragon and lion dances.
Kongming lanterns were flying in the sky and fireworks were exploding.
A lively scene of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, celebrating the New Year.
ah?
Ouyang Xiao was stunned.
The audience in the live broadcast room was also stunned.
I stared blankly at the completely changed virtual space and the players coming and going around me.
"That's not right. Didn't I log in to the platform homepage? How come I'm here?"
Ouyang Xiao was confused.
When did the homepage of Honghuang Platform become like this?
And you can even see other players!
Don't talk about her.
The players who had just logged in didn't know what was going on and cried out in surprise.
And just at this moment.
Suddenly, fireworks exploded in the sky, and a cartoon figure holding a microphone appeared.
"ladies and gentlemen!"
"Welcome to the great world of prehistoric times!"
"Here, you will experience a dream that is like reality, games, window shopping, food, dating, amusement parks..."
"As long as it's something you can imagine, the great world can make it happen for you!"
"Ladies and Gentlemen!"
“Welcome to the Wilderness World…”
The sound gradually faded away, like a broadcast in an amusement park, spreading back and forth around the entire square area, filling the area with a festive atmosphere.
Don’t know.
I thought I was really in an amusement park.
But soon.
The players noticed the portals on the edge of the square and were amazed by the different styles of decorations and symbols on the portals.
“Is this… a portal to other games??”
Ouyang Xiao looked at the portal opposite him in surprise. It was made of pixel bricks and hung with the logo of "Minecraft"!
With great curiosity, she followed the crowd into the portal.
The next second, he appeared in "Minecraft".
The place where they were located was the Taoyuan Village that she and Xiaoqian had built together!
"Did you really enter the game?"
“And there’s no need to start it!”
"What is this? Is this a new feature on the platform?"
"Why haven't I heard of it before?"
"I haven't seen Honghuang issue an announcement."
There was a lot of discussion in the comments, and everyone was as curious as Ouyang Xiao.
When she passed through the portal and came to the ridiculously large square again, she was finally attracted by the giant screen standing in the center of the square.
To be precise, I was attracted by the content playing above.
Li Lingyue, the image ambassador of Honghuang, was seen wearing an ancient costume and explaining the updated content to everyone with a smile on her face.
"Hello everyone, I am Li Lingyue, the image ambassador of Honghuang."
"I believe everyone has seen it. This is a new concept game that our Honghuang Studio is developing. It is called Honghuang World, also known as the Second World."
Wow.
Second world?
Why are you so arrogant?
The audience couldn't sit still after hearing this.
The players in the square were also attracted by the sound and all gathered in the middle, not rushing to play games.
They want to see what tricks Honghuang will come up with this time, even using the title of the Second World.
"Honghuang World is a new concept we launched."
“It’s based on one world, connecting various game worlds, just like the portals you see in games.”
"Of course, you can also change the portal style and the connected game world according to your preferences."
"At the same time, we will build a virtual main city with this as the center, a dream city that perfectly restores reality!"
As Li Lingyue's voice fell.
The scene also switched to the street outside the square.
Like a cursory tour, I passed by familiar shops and finally entered a clothing store.
When the crowd saw the clothes hanging there, which looked exactly like real ones, there was finally a commotion, some of them were in disbelief.
The modeling and rendering level of Honghuang.
Has it reached such an exaggerated level?!
"Yes, you read that correctly."
"We can now perfectly realize virtual imaging of real objects."
“Without leaving your home, you can buy anything you want in this main city and go anywhere you want to go.”
Swish!
The screen changes.
Demonstrating the entire process of a player selecting, trying on and purchasing clothes.
Then came the logistics transportation scene. The goods were delivered directly to my home. When I opened it, I found that it was the same product as that dress!
This time.
Everyone was shocked.
Everyone's mouth opened wide.
"This is... a virtual store?!"
“It can even create images of real objects!”
"Fuck, is this even possible?"
"Then can you try on clothes and pants online and buy them if they fit you?"
"Can we do the same with daily necessities and household appliances?"
“This, this, this is moving the real store directly into the virtual world!?”
At this moment , the players were completely furious.
I couldn't believe my eyes.
If this concept can be realized, then the main city of the game will definitely deserve the title of the second world!
It may even have an impact on the industrial structure of the entire society!
They never expected that at the beginning of the new year, the prehistoric world would give them such a huge shock.
It was like dropping an atomic bomb on a calm lake, instantly creating a huge wave.
This is not the end yet.
Just as they were shocked.
Li Lingyue's voice came again.
"To ensure shopping safety, any products that are seriously inconsistent with the virtual shelves will be directly closed for rectification after reporting and verification. Please feel free to use it."
“Finally, Honghuang World welcomes all honest merchants to settle in and jointly build a colorful second world!”
The introduction is over.
The screen cuts back to the beginning and continues to explain to the new players and audience.
The cartoon shadows in the sky were still floating back and forth, shouting various welcome speeches.
but.
The players don't care about these things.
After the silence, another round of heated discussion broke out.
Many people no longer had the heart to continue playing games, and they went offline to contact their relatives and friends to tell them the news.
They were not born in the 1970s and 1980s and missed the most critical industrial reforms.
They were still young in the 1980s, 1990s and missed the era of the Internet boom.
They had no money in the 2000s and missed the rise of real estate.
now.
No matter what, I can't miss this opportunity again.
Because a new era is finally coming!
There was no need for excessive publicity at all. In just half a day, the news spread like an 18-magnitude earthquake, quickly spreading to all walks of life and causing violent turmoil at home and abroad.
"Imaging of real objects! Hong Huang actually did it!"
"What does this mean? Honghuang wants to create a world that is the same as reality?"
"Quick! Go and find out about this!"
"Contact Honghuang immediately and try to get as much information as possible!"
"This is terrible, this world is going to change!"
It's a mess.
All major manufacturers are in complete chaos.
Compared to the players, they have a keen intuition about the market and have already been in chaos, holding emergency meetings while inquiring for information.
no way.
This news is really too shocking.
Even those who stood at the top of the industry were startled and no longer as calm as before.
Moving real things into the game to create a second world is such a bold concept that they had never dared to think of before.
But Honghuang did it!
Not only that, it was done so quickly!
So much so that they didn't even have a chance to react!
Not to mention other virtual platforms.
At this point, he had already been caught off guard.
"How could it be!"
Soni headquarters, office.
Yoshida's eyes widened as he looked at the message he had just received in the email in disbelief.
I thought that by joining forces with Ren Tiandi, even if I couldn't defeat Honghuang, I would be able to snatch part of the market from Honghuang and swallow up several other competitors.
But unexpectedly.
Honghuang directly used his killing move.
Don't give them any chance to react!
You know it without thinking.
Once this news spreads, it will have a huge impact on the entire industry. By then, even their living space will be squeezed, and there will be no possibility of overthrowing Honghuang.
"Calm down! This is just a piece of news. Hong Huang may not be able to really do it!"
Yoshida took a deep breath and gradually recovered.
Then, he opened the video conference and sent an invitation to Furukawa of Ren Tiandi.
While waiting, invitations were also sent to representatives from several other companies, including Microsoft, Tencent, and EA.
The entire gaming industry is in turmoil.
